Round Controlled

Parameters

• Number - Number to be rounded
• Directions - Direction of rounding
• Decimals - How many decimal places

Number

The first parameter is a number that you wish to round. This number can be entered directly into the command, or from another location such as a spreadsheet or a global numerical variable.

Direction

The second parameter chooses the direction of rounding. There are five options:

• Nearest
• Smaller
• Larger
• Down
• Up

The difference between "Smaller" and "Down" comes when the values are negative:

2.4 down = 2

2.4 smaller = 2

-2.4 down = -3

-2.4 smaller = -2

Decimals

The third parameter is number of decimals to begin the rounding position.

Example 1

''On End Run Logic

SET gblNumber = 123.456

Round Controlled gblNumber , Nearest , 2

''

The above example will convert 123.456 (from the variable gblNumber) to 123.46

Example 2

''On End Run Logic

SET gblNumber = 123.456

Round Controlled gblNumber , Down , 1 ''

The above example will convert 123.456 (from the variable gblNumber) to 123.4

Example 3

''On End Run Logic

SET gblNumber = 123.456

Round Controlled gblNumber , Up , 0 ''

The above example will convert 123.456 (from the variable gblNumber) to 124

Example 4

''On End Run Logic

SET gblNumber = 123.456

Round Controlled gblNumber , Larger , 2 ''

The above example will convert 123.456 (from the variable gblNumber) to 123.46
